Campeche Island, Protected island in Florianópolis, Brazil.
The island rises 43 meters above sea level and features multiple trails through the Atlantic rainforest, leading to archaeological sites and beaches.
Ancient indigenous peoples left over 100 petroglyphs across the island, which now stands as a preserved archaeological heritage site under IPHAN protection.
Local fishermen associations maintain traditional maritime practices by operating boat transportation services between the mainland and the island throughout the year.
Visitors can access the island through scheduled boat departures from three locations: Praia do Campeche, Praia da Armação, and Barra da Lagoa during peak season.
The island's waters hold substantial marine biodiversity, with specific areas designated for snorkeling activities under the guidance of certified instructors.
